Check behind the wall plates and. Make sure the wires are actually hooked up. None of the wires in mine have ever been totally right. Also do you have TV anywhere else before tearing into things?

If your looking to watch local stations, make sure the signal booster is on. If your hooked up to shore cable make sure the booster is off.

Look at the wall plate by the main TV where the cable comes out there may be a tiny light there and a switch. if the light is lit turn the switch to the other position. Other then that as others have said it may be how the rig was wired or not wried you can pull the wall plate to see what you have

I am not sure if you actually answered my questions, but do you have TV anywhere else in the camper or is all out? Also, is the TV set to use a cable connection my antenna? I know our tv needs to be changed in the menu to use either antena or cable then a scan run.

OK then choose the opposite of antenna and see if that works if it does then change the other tV or better yet check one of those for the option

Cycle the input button.
Catv or air is what you are looking for

Can you or is it possible to plug the tv into the cable hookup to make sure the cable ACTUALLY works from the pedistal? Would not be the first time something was worn out from the pedistal. Also what TV model do you have so we maybe can look for the manual and see what it says.

Go to setup on the TV menu and you should see the choices you are looking for.

Also can you just plug into the pedistal to get TV or do you need a cable box? Some CG I've been use a box you need to rent some allow a direct connection.

You know a quick fix may be to ask one of your camp neighbors who has TV to lend a hand
